Thanks for that info. Look forward to the results of my calibration later.

Keep us posted.

I just finished a second cycle of calibration, with screen brightness at lowest, power-saver power plan, and battery saver on. Battery wear now at 7.3%, capacity 39,870mWh

Might not be a good idea too do this often though. I’ve read that deep charge/discharge cycles can damage lithium batteries.

Wow, My battery did change!. Now it’s worn 10.3% after your calibration. I will try again every 30 charges. I appreciate all this info Papa!

Thanks for the info, guys! I’ll do that once and a while. It’s similar to Android battery calibration but Android is easier, you just need to use the device till it dies and if it’s rooted there are some apps that do that.

The secret seems to be let the battery drain out while in BIOS. Just doing it in Windows seems to have no effect.

There are some guides telling how to do in Windows. But I think doing in BIOS is better also.

Doing it in BIOS seems to bypass and reset the windows calibration.

I’ll try when I need, the tutorials told to do it every 2=3 months, my device is only a month old and the battery looks OK now.
